My dog is the only family member I don't expect to have a spat with on Thanksgiving. Dogs don't understand politics, they don't ask why I don't have kids yet, and they're always happy to go on a pre-dinner walk around the block (iykyk). Our poochy partners don't judge, they don't scorn, and they don't over-spray their cologne to the point of needing a gas mask for every greeting. Unlike our hooman families, dogs are a buoy of normalcy in the craziest times this holiday season.

For pet pawrents going away for the holidays, cherish your doggo and hold them close during the Macy's Parade. Spoil them rotten and when they look up at you with their big baby eyes, perhaps consider showing your gratitude in the form of a tasty table scrap or a delicious slice of dark meat from the turkey. Because although you have what seems like another eternity with your family on Thanksgiving, your doggo simply won't be around as long. Give thanks this Thanksgiving, proud pet parents, for the fur-baby who brings you joy every day with countless slobbery kisses, happy tail wags, and an always-eager enthusiasm for leftovers.
